Location: In Japan, the cultivation of azaleas (“Satsuki”) as bonsai forms a separate discipline, having its own association of amateurs and professionals. Azalea, unlike most plants designed as bonsai, has more vigour in the lower branches than in the apex, which we must take into account when pruning and pinching.
Watering: Abundant in summer, moderate in winter. It requires pure water, with an acidic pH. It does not support lime.
Curiosities: Outdoor throughout the year.
Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 47 x 33 x 47
Note: The shape and measurements of the bonsais are approximate. The pot is included on the dimensions. The colour and shape of the pot may vary from that of the photo. A bonsai is a living being, so the vegetative state of the plant changes according to the season. The images that appear are non-binding illustrative pictures.

Pruning
After flowering.
Nipping
When the shoot has grown up to 6 to 8 leaves, cut down to 2 leaves.
It is convenient to thin the flowers, so as not to weaken the plant. We will leave the flowers for a week, after which we will remove them. At the point of insertion of the flowers is where the buds will appear, usually in the number of five. From these shoots we will select the two that are best placed horizontally, eliminating the rest. These two shoots will be pinched to two leaves. We will also remove the old leaves.
